Day 1-SB to Carpinteria State Park 22 mi

Day one is in the log. We drove 265 mi and then got on our bikes for 22 mi. The ride went really well. We parked at long term parking by the airport and pretty much followed the bike lane all the way here. Much better marked than six years ago when we rode from Seaside to Santa Barbara.

About ten miles down the line I realized I didn't have my camera. I usually travel with a nice Canon Powershot. Well it is either in the car or
somewhere around it on the ground...but it was to far to go back and check. So....at least for now I am using my phone. 

My sister is visiting in Santa Barbara........ she just came by for a visit.
Strange to see family on one of our trips.

Nothing scary to report today. Lots of traffic noises but we were on city
streets and bike trails not 101 Hwy. Maybe tomorrow. We travel about 53 mi tomorrow. Through Ventura and Oxnard to Leo Carrillo State Park. Hikers biker is $10 a person here and the showers are nice and warm.

Hope tomorrow is as nice....weather perfect high 60'

Lunch Santa Maria..the truckers were loving the ride!
